Hillary Clinton wants to be the Love President. I thought that was her husband, but OK, let’s roll with it. Hillary said one of the stupider things I’ve heard a Democratic presidential candidate say in an interview on the Lifetime channel that aired Wednesday. Asked what she, as a “female,” would bring to the presidency, Hillary flashed back to the sixties and said, “I really believe we need more love and kindness and nurturing in our country, and in the world. I don’t mean this to be Read more […]

Philadelphia Police Officer Jesse Hartnett was sitting in his patrol car late Thursday night when a man approached, looking like he was going to ask for directions. Instead, the man, identified as Edward Archer, pulled out a gun that had been stolen from police more than two years ago and opened fire, pumping about a dozen rounds into the driver side window. By some miracle, Hartnett survived despite taking multiple hits and was able to get out of his car and chase after the fleeing suspect, Read more […]

If you watch the video above you will see the mayor denying the attack was terrorism or had anything to do with Islam. It reminds me of the way German politicians responded to coordinated sexual assaults by immigrants. [See also: “Another Islamic Attack, Another Round of Denials.”] But it also points to the need for the populace to be armed. We obviously can’t count on the terrorist-inspired shooters to only target cops. From the Washington Times: The man who opened fire on a Philadelphia Read more […]

This is so brazen even I am surprised. AP reports, “US sees Assad staying in Syria until March 2017.” The Obama administration has a vision for Syrian leader Bashar Assad’s departure. Even if it works, the president won’t be around to see the plan through. An internal U.S. timeline for a best-case Syrian political transition, obtained by The Associated Press, sets a date of March 2017 for Assad to “relinquish” his position as president and for his “inner circle” to depart. That is two months after Read more […]

Iraqi Master Sergeant Karam Saad, in an interview with the Independent Journal, discussed how he was taken prisoner in 2014 by ISIS. While in Mosul shortly after its capture, Saad was caught by ISIS forces. Matching his name to a list of Iraqi military personnel, the ISIS soldiers took him to a prison facility, where Saad was held for three days. During his time there, Saad said, he was tortured with electric wires and bags full of water tied around his neck. He also witnessed how ISIS treated Read more […]

According to The Wall Street Journal, The crossfire between the two leading presidential candidates intensified Monday, as Democrat Hillary Clinton’s campaign stood by her claim that Republican front-runner Donald Trump’s rhetoric is being used as propaganda by terrorist groups, though there is no evidence Islamic State has put him in videos. Mrs. Clinton said in Saturday’s Democratic debate that Mr. Trump “is becoming ISIS’s best recruiter,” and that he was being used in videos. Mr. Read more […]

Supporting the Syrian rebels against Assad–as bad as he is–is morally perverse. We’ve covered before how the rebels work with ISIS. To claim they are moderates is false. Here is more evidence from Rare.US: “Study: 1 in 3 Syrian rebels shares ISIS’s ideology.” A report released today by the Centre on Religion and Geopolitics—a think tank tied to former UK prime minister Tony Blair who helped orchestrate the 2003 invasion of Iraq—shared grim findings about the chaos that will persist Read more […]

In the wake of the Charlie Hebdo attacks, the whole world made a big deal about free speech. It was mostly hypocritical posturing in France, and Liberals who contribute to Slate.com are just as bad. Eric Posner, a professor at the University of Chicago Law School, is also the author of a book called The Twilight of International Human Rights Law. I wonder if he noticed the irony, as he wrote, Never before in our history have enemies outside the United States been able to propagate genuinely Read more […]

“What are you prepared to do?” That was the iconic line Malone, Sean Connery’s character, said to Elliot Ness, played by Kevin Costner, in “The Untouchables,” a movie about four unlikely officers trying to take down Al Capone during Prohibition. In that film, most of the officialdom in Chicago was complicit with Capone’s liquor and crime trade, even turning the other way when Capone’s gang murdered people. The movie shows Capone, the kingpin of all crime, living large in public, followed by Read more […]

If you haven’t seen the Dinesh D’Souza movie “2016: Obama’s America,” it’s a worthwhile watch. If you have seen it, now’s a good time to dust off the DVD and watch it again. As we near the beginning of 2016, it’s more than a little unnerving to see D’Souza’s prediction about Obama working to create a new caliphate moving closer to reality. Produced before the 2012 election, the documentary explores Obama’s life and motivations, then projects what the world will look like in 2016 if he were Read more […]

I do not mean to be crass with my title but for a few decades now I have noticed many anti-American sentiments around the topic of innocent Americans protecting themselves. None of these sentiments are logical; none of them are ethical; and certainly none of them have prevented weapons from taking the life of the innocent they are claiming to protect! Take “gun-free” zones as one example of this nonsensical anti-self defense mentality. We were supposed to believe these zones would Read more […]

Here is the headline at Politico: “Lynch recalibrates message on hateful speech.” Attorney General Loretta Lynch Monday appeared to recalibrate remarks she made last week that suggested the Justice Department could investigate speech deemed hostile towards Muslims. “Of course, we prosecute deeds and not words,” she said at a press conference Monday to announce an unrelated civil rights investigation into the Chicago Police Department. Of course it should be that way if American law still holds Read more […]
